I looked around myself for some good copies of this film. Unfortunately many printed nitrocellulose films had either rotted away or had faded. N.B. Alice in Wonderland.

Your video, Casper the ghost, may have audiovisual content that is owned or licensed by Classic Media Ltd.This is the e-mail I received from you tube.
I was under the impression all submissions to the internet archive were non copyright??.

Subject: The print is faded!
There are too many bad NTA prints! The only one I find acceptable is an "All Star Cartoon Parade" version, where the audio isn't tweaked and the fading is mild.

The best print is locked up in the UCLA vaults.
